at ATLANTIC CHRISTIAN COLLEGE
The aim of the 1949 PINE KNOT staff has been to present a
record of the progress and achievements of the past year and to
portray the spirit of A.C.C. With long hours of work and fun
behind us we offer you a picture of the student life on our campus
—our classes- our work— our play.
With the hope that this annual will be a possession worth cherish-
ing and with deep appreciation for the cooperation we have re-
ceived, we present this volume--the 1949 PINE KNOT.
JIM AND MORGAN
C. H. HAMLIN
Professor of Social Science
DEDICATED TO . . .
Only occasionally do we find an individual possessing the
rare combination of teacher, scholar, and true friend. All of us
who have had the fortune of attending Atlantic Christian since
1925 have known such an uncommon privilege. Dr. Hamlin
has endeared himself to countless students, friends of the College,
and acguaintances by his generosity, wisdom, and understanding.
Realizing the inadeguacy of any tribute we can pay him, we
dedicate this volume to Dr. C. H. Hamlin, with deep gratitude
for his wisdom, friendship, and patience.

FOOTBALL
Atlantic Christian Bulldogs began their
third season of inter-collegiate football last
fall facing one of the toughest schedules
ever undertaken by an A.C. team. It
was a green band of Freshmen that went
to Catawba on Sept. 18, and the vaunted
Indians did the expected by knocking over
the Blue and White by a 42 to 7 count.
The next weekend a surprisingly improved
band of Bulldogs lost a heartbreaker to
Elon, 13 to 7 when a 90 yard pass play was
nullified in the warning minutes of the
game — a badly marked field being the
cause. In the next game with the Navy
Apprentice School, the Bulldogs all but
pushed their opposition out of the staduim
only to lose again 15 to 6. High Point
came next and the Panthers walloped the
A.C.C. gridders, 47 to 0. But, on the follow-
ing Saturday it was the Bulldogs turn to
board the victory wagon for the first time
since 1946 by 7 to victory over Norfolk
Navy. In the next three successive games
it was Guilford, 19-0; Lenoir Rhyne, 19-0;
and Appalachian 26-7 over the Bulldogs.
With only one precious win, Atlantic
Christian ended their season with a sweep-
ing 6 to win over their arch rival E.C.T.C.
One of A.C's most colorful athletes, "Lefty"
Helmer, terminated his football career by
leading his -team to this victory with one
of the greatest punting exhibitions ever
witnessed in the North State Conference.

Now Read This — Please
At last our work on this volume is ended — an event that has been eagerly looked forward to,
for it has meant enduring many long hours of work; the constant threat of deadlines; and the
possibility of delivery being delayed until after Commencement. It seems years ago since
we felt free to study or to enjoy a free night, but at last we feel and are free. Free, with the
hope that this annual will merit your approval. If it pleases you we are gratified.
In later years if it brings a happy moment of recalling some memorable event in your college
life we will feel that our time and patience spent have been amply rewarded.
Our sincere gratitude is here offered to the students, faculty members, and many friends
who have been of invaluable aid to us. We wish to express our special appreciation to the
members of the staff — to Darlene, Mr. Murray, Miss Ward, Raines and Cox, Jean and Walt,
Mr. Wm. Oliver Smith, Raleigh, Billy Rose and Elenore Holm Rose of New York, our advertisers,
and, last but by no means least, to the dear faculty members that were so understanding and
generous to us in regards to class cuts — we bow to you in appreciation of these sterling deeds.
Get acguainted with all of these wonderful people. They are the ones who have helped make
this book all that it is. They are indeed our friends, and yours.

X es. teachers are vitally important to you, and to every good citizen —
yet today, as you well know, there are far from enough fully qualified
teachers in our schools. What can you do to help solve the serious
school-teacher shortage?
YOU CAN DO THIS!
First: Check up on educational conditions in your local schools. Second:
Work with civic groups and school boards seeking to improve teachers'
working and living conditions. The joint effort of forward-looking
citizens can and must save this situation — for the sake of our children
and our country.
